Raven's Lament

Raven returns to his home after a long journey. Instead of trees he finds tall buildings. Raven continues to travel to a beach where he finds a log that has washed out to sea and is cast back onto the beach. 

The log is heavy with saltwater. It sits on the beach in the sunlight while the water, which is metaphorically grief, starts to leave the log. Raven is communing with the log as he gazes up at the tall buildings and tries to understand how the world has changed.
